Abstract
Methods and apparatus for providing electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for a module receiving area within a computer server housing configured to receive an input/output (IO) module are disclosed. The module receiving area is covered with a door. EMI shielding is provided by transitioning the door from a closed position to an open position in response to a force applied by the IO module, maintaining contact between the IO module and the door while the door is open to provide EMI shielding for the module receiving area when the IO module is present, and transitioning the door from the open position to the closed position in response to removal of the force applied by the IO module when the IO module is withdrawn from the module receiving area to provide EMI shielding for the module receiving area when the IO module is not present.
